In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Yusuf Pathan wins the Baharampur seat with a significant margin, defeating Congress’s Adir Chowdhury by over 70,000 votes. Representing the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC), Yusuf Pathan secured an early lead and maintained it throughout the counting process.
The election for the Baharampur Lok Sabha constituency conducted on May 13th, with a notable voter turnout of 77.54 percent. Adhir Ranjan Choudhary of the Indian National Congress was a key contender, but Yusuf Pathan’s victory signifies a major shift in the political landscape of the region.
Baharampur, a prominent city in West Bengal, is the administrative center of the Murshidabad district. Located approximately 200 km from Kolkata, Baharampur plays a vital role in commerce, administration, education, and politics within the state and across India. According to the 2011 census, the Baharampur Urban Agglomeration had a population of 305,609, comprising 156,489 males and 149,120 females.
This victory highlights Yusuf Pathan’s strong political influence and the effective campaign strategies of the AITC. With Yusuf Pathan winning the election, the Trinamool Congress poised to strengthen its position in West Bengal, marking a significant triumph over the Indian National Congress.
As Yusuf Pathan wins the Baharampur election, the focus now shifts to the future developments in the region under his leadership. His victory is expected to bring new opportunities and growth to Baharampur, enhancing its importance in West Bengal’s political and economic spheres.
